Many fans and analysts are bracing for a potential fire sale involving the Los Angeles Chargers. The Bolts have made one roster change already, but it involves signing veteran Jalyn Armour-Davis. Meanwhile, the future of edge rushers Khalil Mack and Tuli Tuipulotu remains in flux.
However, don't expect both stars to be traded according to NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport.
“They're showing no inclination as of right now to be willing to deal any of their players,” Rapoport said during his appearance on ESPN's NFL Live Monday.
Even fellow NFL insider for ESPN Jeremy Fowler shared the Chargers' stance, revealing that the Bolts “aren't sellers” as of now.
“They're hoping to come out of the bye week with more inspiration,” Fowler said.
